Hi all<br><br>I'm new to all this!<br><br>I followed the instructions to the letter when creating a USB Mountain Lion Loader, which was successful. However once I change the boot options in my HP Mini 2140 (2009 model) the loader starts but will not go beyond the boot screen. The error code flashes very quickly which says 'Bad Magic Number'.<br><br>Also it gives two boot options one for the USB Loader and one for the Windows NTFS. in the tutorial it should only the bootable USB icon.<br><br>HP Mini 2140 &gt; 2gb Ram Intel 120gb HDD 2009 model.<br><br>Any help would be cool thanks<br><br><br>
